Description Eugene Syromyatnikov 2013-05-29 10:18:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
Tests in unit-tests/MIMEUtilTest.cc (namely, set_mime_text_test() and rfc822_date_test()) fail if performed in eastern (related to UTC) timezones since mktime()

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tested with 3.11.0-2, but quick look at 3.11.3-3 reveals no differences in this part of code.

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set tomezone to UTC+smth (Europe/Moscow is fine).
2. Try to build package.

Actual results:
Tests set_mime_text_test() and rfc822_date_test() fail which fails the build.

Expected results:
Tests set_mime_text_test() and rfc822_date_test() should pass.

Additional info:
Some quick patch (against 3.11.0, but should apply also against 3.11.3 since difference between those two versions of this file is negligible) which should likely solve the problem.

I would suggest sending this to support, they are pretty responsive.  I'm afraid I'm not really interested in maintaining a patch that just fixes a testcase.
